It has been known that using different representations of either queries or documents, or different retrieval techniques retrieves different sets of documents. Recent work suggest...
We describe a new approach for evaluating page segmentation algorithms. Unlike techniques that rely on OCR output, our method is region-based: the segmentation output, described a...
Checksum and CRC algorithms have historically been studied under the assumption that the data fed to the algorithms was uniformly distributed. This paper examines the behavior of ...
In functional programming, intermediate data structures are often used to “glue’) together small programs. Deforestation is a program transformation to remove these intermedia...
Performance evaluation studies are to be an integral part of the design and tuning of parallel applications. We propose a hierarchical approach to the systematic characterization o...
